Banchory Dental Practice - Aberdeenshire

Fillings

If part of a tooth has been lost through decay or damaged due to an accident, you may require a filling to plug the hole and stop any future pain or discomfort. A filling can be made out of a variety of materials but the most common material we use at Banchory Dental Practice is white composite.

Fillings are usually carried out under local anaesthetic and take approximately 30 minutes to complete. Fillings can be completed with minimum of inconvenience and, in keeping with our philosophy of prevention and conservation, we would always recommend a filling over an extraction whenever possible.
